I’m seeing a tale of two graduates going on:
1. People who have tons of interviews: top 20 school grads, interns/returning interns, diverse candidates at not top 20
2. People who can’t get an interview after 1000 applications: all non top schools, online schools and short programs like WGU, people with no internships.
Even during the boom time, excluding the occasional person showing off, most of the top CS school students aren’t on Reddit and have recruiters schmoozing them to join their companies.
If you are in bucket 2, consider grad school, contract, unpaid internships, and starting your own company.
